Cancer Support Community Angel Gala Sparkles

Cancer Support Community Pasadena’s 26th annual Angel Gala “Black, White and Bling” was a success, with more than 300 guests in attendance last Saturday night. The gala, CSCP’s largest annual fundraiser, raised more than $331,000 for CSCP’s programs. Guests were dressed in glittering attire that added to the radiant and brilliant atmosphere.
The tireless work of Gala committee chairs Melissa Alcorn, Clay Marquardt and Lydia Valenta, along with the entire Angel Gala Committee, made for a fun and festive event. This year, CSCP recognized Margaret and David Mgrublian and Mijares Restaurant as Angel Award recipients for their generous contributions and support of CSCP. The organization’s participant Rabbi Susan Goldberg spoke about her family’s experience at CSCP, noting that “we are all in the wilderness in this life yet we found community at CSCP.”
“We thank our donors for keeping CSCP at the top of their charitable giving, year after year. Without their annual support, CSCP would not be able to take care of people in our community who are facing an incredible challenge –– cancer,” said Meg Symes, CSCP’s executive director.
CSCP is located at 76 E. Del Mar Blvd., Suite 215, in Pasadena, on the second floor of the Pasadena Humane Society’s building. For more information, call (626) 796-1083 or visit cscpasadena.org.
